FAQ
Quick answers to common Task Bar Hero questions about pets, selling gear, Soul Stones, Cube actions, item safety, offline rewards, stage walls, and Steam Market delivery.
Last reviewed: 2026-06-03. This is an unofficial fan guide; check the latest update state and in-game behavior before acting on expensive items.
Bats are reported around 1-7 to 1-9. If your party is strong enough, check 1-9; if the run is unstable, use 1-8 first because it is safer and still keeps early gear progress moving.
Do not farm the highest stage if your party dies or clears slowly.
Use the pets guide after the bat unlock question because pet value is cumulative rather than a single equipped slot.
Use the Hero-dric Cube. Set the Cube action to Alchemy, then convert unwanted gear into gold. Treat this as the practical sell function for early item cleanup.
Lock or separate gear you may keep before bulk actions.
Early players usually get more value from turning obvious junk into gold than from rushing every synthesis choice.
Keep a reserve first. Soul Stones are connected to Act boss attempts, and boss clears can matter for accessory progression and higher-value drops. Only consider selling extras after your boss plan is covered.
If you are still learning boss strength, do not convert your whole stock into market value.
Failed or unfinished boss handling can change how players perceive Soul Stone cost, so confirm the current in-game behavior before expensive decisions.
Rewards can feel worse when you overfarm a stage that no longer matches your party level, or when you push into a stage that clears too slowly. The right farming stage is the fastest safe stage that still gives useful progress.
If a lower stage dies instantly but gives poor progress, move forward.
If a higher stage takes too long or wipes the party, step back and upgrade before pushing again.
No. Offline rewards are a supplement. For chest flow, item drops, Cube fuel, and market-facing loot, treat active-idle play while the game is running as the main progression loop.
Minimized taskbar play is still useful because the game can keep farming while you work.
If your goal is gear, do not plan around offline rewards alone.
Treat stage walls as a build check. If fire damage, backline deaths, or boss pressure stops the run, step back to a stable farming stage, upgrade the frontline and support, then push again.
Do not keep forcing the same wall if the party dies before meaningful damage lands.
Use a tank, support, and damage structure before chasing pure DPS.
After buying or receiving a market item, check Steam inventory and then the in-game mail flow. Delivery can take sync time, so wait before assuming the item disappeared.
Avoid repeating expensive market actions while server or mail sync feels delayed.
If the item has sockets or upgrades, review whether those states affect listing and handling.
Use the Cube-related removal tools when available, and do not assume every upgrade state is freely reversible. Review the item before applying sockets or market-facing upgrades.
The safe rule is simple: check the item state before applying or removing rare upgrade layers.
If you plan to sell the item, verify market eligibility before spending more materials on it.
FAQ
Bats appear around stages 1-7 to 1-9. If you can clear safely, 1-9 is the better check; if not, farm 1-8 first because it is safer and still gives useful early gear.
There is no normal shop button for junk gear. Use the Hero-dric Cube and switch the top action to Alchemy to break unwanted items into gold.
Do not sell all of them blindly. Soul Stones are tied to Act boss attempts and can matter for accessories and higher-value drops, so keep a reserve before considering market value.
Older stages can become inefficient once your party outlevels them. Farm where kills stay fast but rewards still move your next rune, gear, Cube, or boss goal forward.
Offline rewards help with a little gold or experience, but chests and item farming are best treated as active-idle progress while the game is running.
Market purchases usually need to pass through Steam inventory and the in-game mail flow. Check mail and allow sync time before assuming the item is missing.
